In the Branches
They left angels singing in the branches of a burning tree
Said it was all a game
And your daddy got bent and twisted in the bed that he made
You'll end up the same
You went down, down, down
You went down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
You went down, down, down
You went down, down, down where the fire is born
Old men living on cheap cigarettes, cherry pie and apple wine
He died in the house where his daddy died
You died in the house where your daddy died
The AM crackin'
The comin' storms, the economy and crime
The brave rain man that swelled up tight
The green man doing time with signs
They left angels singing in the branches of a burning tree
Said it was all a game and your daddy got bent and twisted in the bed that he made
You'll end up the same
You went down, down, down (down down down)
You went down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
You're goin' down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down where the fire is born
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down where the fire is born
An eye for an eye to fight fire with fire
It was hard to take sides
We were all burnin' alive
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
Does the night time hold you tight?
Is your heart like a pound of steel?
Will the darkness kill the light
Closer to the bottom of a turnin'
Does the night time hold you tight?
Is your heart like a pound of steel?
Will the darkness kill the light
Closer to the bottom of a turnin'
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down where the fire is born
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down where the fire is born
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
Said it was all a game
And your daddy got bent and twisted in the bed that he made
You'll end up the same
You went down, down, down
You went down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
You went down, down, down
You went down, down, down where the fire is born
Old men living on cheap cigarettes, cherry pie and apple wine
He died in the house where his daddy died
You died in the house where your daddy died
The AM crackin'
The comin' storms, the economy and crime
The brave rain man that swelled up tight
The green man doing time with signs
They left angels singing in the branches of a burning tree
Said it was all a game and your daddy got bent and twisted in the bed that he made
You'll end up the same
You went down, down, down (down down down)
You went down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
You're goin' down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down where the fire is born
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down where the fire is born
An eye for an eye to fight fire with fire
It was hard to take sides
We were all burnin' alive
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you

Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down in the sugar and the corn
Down, down, down (down down down)
You're goin' down, down, down where the fire is born
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
And my branches are waitin' for you like arms
My branches are waitin' for you
